Quick question for football manager fans..

This is the same as Fifa and only updates after the January transfer window I believe.
Best waiting for 18 to be released :thumbright:

You may not get an offical update, but the various fan sites regularly release patches to update transfers, add club logos etc etc

sites such as fmscout or fm-base

Ok cheers. How people seem to get on with football manager 2017? Last one i played i think was 2015, finding tactics and player instructions that worked well seemed hard then, how people manage doing the tactics side with 2017? Was a lot easier to play years ago lol

More fun to do the tactics yourself though dont you think? Just hard to come up with a good one thats successful on the newer versions!

If you buy it from steam you can go into the steam workshop and download a database update which includes squad updates for all English league based teams like the premier league, championship etc, the only transfers that arnt included in cardiff are loic damour and Tomlin I think
